News update : Maxx Crosby Talks Game Plan To Contain Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert…

The Kansas City Chiefs filled several roster holes through the 2024 NFL draft. The Chiefs also signed a slew of undrafted free agents.

After assessing their new rookie talent, the Chiefs announced a round of cuts, which included wide receiver Anthony Miller.

AtoZSports’ Charles Goldman reported, “The most notable of these players is Miller. A former second-round pick by the Bears in the 2018 NFL draft, Miller has a history with OC Matt Nagy in Chicago.

He had been down in Texas training with Patrick Mahomes this offseason, but apparently, he didn’t do enough to warrant a 90-man roster spot moving forward. ”

Miller shared several photos from his workouts in Texas on Instagram. Four days before his release, photographer Heather Smith shared a reel featuring Mahomes training with Miller, Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, Travis Kelce, Rashee Rice, Louis Rees-Zammit, and more.

The Chiefs initially signed Miller to the practice squad in December 2023, right after wide receiver Skyy Moore hit injured reserve. The 29-year-old signed a futures contract with the team on January 23.

Miller, who had a brief stint with the Houston Texans, hasn’t taken a snap in the NFL since he played for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2021. In 50 career games and 18 starts, Miller recorded 140 catches for 1,589 yards and 12 touchdowns.
